Off-site records storage costs continue to rise, and many firms are discovering they have less visibility, flexibility, and long-term protection in their contracts than they expected.
In this 45-minute Coffee Break, Rob Mattern, President of Mattern, and John Riggleman, Firm Administrator of Caplin & Drysdale, discuss how the firm approached a major off-site storage contract renewal after facing a 35.5% increase in costs and ultimately developed a strategy focused on long-term savings and operational control.
This practical conversation explores the realities of off-site records management today, including contract negotiations, retention strategy, destruction practices, and the hidden costs that often go unmanaged for years.
What you’ll learn:
• Different strategies available when contracts expire
• How firms are reducing unnecessary storage and service costs
• Why contract terms may matter more than pricing alone
• Ways to improve retention and destruction strategies• How to build stronger long-term protection into storage agreements
• Why many firms are rethinking the traditional renewal cycle
